Even though the Fed maintained its hawkish stance after the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, markets tended to interpret Powell's comments cautiously.

In contrast, three out of nine Monetary Policy Committee members at the BoE meeting supported a 25 basis point rate hike.

Despite these developments, the pound's upward momentum remains limited. Interest rate forecasts suggest the Bank of England will not consider cutting rates until the third quarter of next year. This is slower than the Fed's market expectations (now revised to Q2 2024).

DXY (Dollar index) Retracement back up to 105.600Following from last week hectic week of news events, we had a nice end on NFP friday giving us a clear indication on what price wants to do. As you can see the dollar has been ranging on the higher time frame, generating liquidity and testing new possible highs however failed to do so.
Scenario (A) - We have a strong bearish candle breaching the low of the range, breaking the structure to the downside. This hints that the dollar wants to move in a bearish trend and possibly want to take the HTF trendline below that was left from the previous rally. From this move, we have marked out new supply zones that we can sell from to continue this expansion.
As of current price we have entered a nice (4hr) demand zone that has previously caused BOS to the upside this can allow us to buy back up towards the supply above. Already we see a nice reaction within the zone as well as price accumilating so we can possibly look for nice buys on monday once we get a CHOCH on the LTF's. We will then target the 13hr supply zone above as thats our main POI for a potential sell setup to form.
Scenario (B) - Is that price continues to the downside and fails this zone to sweep the liquidity below. As theres a lot of asian lows and engineering liquidity, price can easily take this to tap into the daily demand which is a better zone to buy from to target the supply above around 105.500.
My confluences for short term dollar (DXY) buys are as follows:
- Price tapped into a 4hr demand that broke structure to the upside.
- Wyckoff accumilation is starting to formulate due to the slow movement inside the zone.
- Imbalances left above from NFP news event that price needs to come fill.
- If price wants to continue in this bearish trend it must retrace back to the supply above.
- Liquidity from the previous low has also been swept (which is the bottom of the range) - enough liquidity to possibly cause price to retrace back up to 105.600.
P.S. From last weeks DXY breakdown (29/10/23), My scenario (A) played out how I expected as price respected my 7hr supply zone that I marked out and melted perfectly from that zone which caused price to break structure to the downside. I am temporarily bearish on the dollar so our next POI's to continue this order flow will be at the 13hr supply or the extreme (7hr) above.
DXY - Keylevels - DailyDxy is going through a critical period, after several weeks in a row it lost a bit of its price, the ultimate test, that is, the neckline was finally broken and now it seems that it has room to go down.
I have mentioned the important areas.
The FED meeting in December can help DXY in a comeback if this will be a Hawkish meeting, but at the moment December is quite far away and things for DXY can get complicated if it loses the next level as well.
On the other hand, let's not forget that big investors can't wait to sell their dollars to enter the market, so the pressure on the dollar at these moments is getting bigger and bigger.
DXY Peaks as Leverage Combined Positions for USD Index RiseIt is with great concern that I bring to your notice the recent surge in leverage combined positions for the USD index, coinciding with the apparent peak of the Dollar Index (DXY). This convergence of events has prompted us to urge you to exercise caution and consider pausing your USD trading activities.
Over the past few weeks, we have witnessed the DXY reaching new heights, bolstered by a series of positive economic indicators and widespread optimism. However, it is crucial to recognize that such prolonged upward trends tend to have limitations, often leading to market corrections or reversals.
The mounting leverage combined positions for the USD index indicate an increasing number of traders speculating on the dollar's continued ascent. While this may seem enticing, history has shown us that excessive optimism and overleveraging can be precursors to market downturns. As responsible traders, it is our duty to approach these situations with a level-headed perspective.
Therefore, we strongly advise you to pause and reevaluate your USD trading strategies, taking into account the current market conditions and the potential risks associated with the DXY's peak. Consider diversifying your portfolio, exploring alternative currency pairs, or even temporarily shifting your focus to other assets that exhibit more favorable risk-reward ratios.
By exercising prudence during this phase of heightened optimism, you can better protect your capital and avoid potential losses. Remember, trading is a marathon, not a sprint, and preserving your financial stability is paramount.
In conclusion, we urge you to approach USD trading with caution, recognizing the potential risks associated with the DXY's current peak and the surge in leverage combined positions. Take this opportunity to reassess your strategies, diversify your portfolio, and consider alternative trading options. By doing so, you will be better positioned to adapt and thrive in the ever-evolving world of trading.
DXY:Oil prices recovered after a volatile end to OctoberOil prices rose slightly in Asian trade on Wednesday, the first in five months, as traders priced in lower risk premiums from the Israel-Hamas war and focus now shifted to the Federal Reserve's interest rate decisions. I have recovered from the worst month of .
The market also had mixed data on U.S. oil inventories, showing that while overall inventories increased, gasoline and distillate inventories declined significantly.
Oil prices have fallen sharply in recent trading amid growing expectations that Israel and Hamas will not have a significant impact on Middle East oil flows, especially with no Arab powers in sight. Others are also involved in the conflict.
However, the World Bank has warned that the conflict could continue to affect oil supplies and cause prices to rise. However, the organization also predicts that oil prices will remain depressed until 2024 on the back of slowing global economic growth. Concerns over weak demand in China also weighed on oil markets, following disappointing factory activity data released on Tuesday by the world's biggest oil importer. The figures came after a dire business report in the euro zone, raising concerns about a slowdown in global economic growth.
DXY: USD exchange rate today (November 1); The USD reversed and The US economy is resilient, as evidenced by new data released on October 31. This is the most recent indication that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) can sustain high interest rates for an extended length of time.
As a result, given the substantial rise in wages during the third quarter, US labor costs rose dramatically. After increasing by 1.0% between April and June, the employment expenditure index (ECI) increased by 1.1% in the most recent quarter.
According to additional data, US housing prices increased in August for the third straight month, up 5.6% over the same time last year and 4.6% from July.
The Fed started a two-day policy meeting on October 31 and was predicted to maintain interest rates at that time.
Latest news: Gold price has surpassed the $2,000 mark, as demandGold prices rose above $2,000 amid rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and demand for safe-haven assets ahead of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. However, the 10-year bond yield has reached 5.02%, the highest level since 2007, and remains high.
The increase in the US government's debt service rate strengthens the strength of the US dollar, leading to increases in the price of both the US dollar and gold. But gold, which doesn't pay interest, is often under selling pressure when the U.S. dollar and government bond yields rise.
Despite these factors and the fact that U.S. real yields have reached a 15-year high of over 2.60%, gold prices remain resilient.

DXY Daily Chart Analysis - Will DXY Return to the Bull Channel?DXY finally broke out of the bull channel it has been in since July of this year. A strong bull response off of the 30EMA brought the price back to the bull channel. We are now waiting to see if the price can re-enter the channel, or if it fails and confirms a breakout to the downside.
Key Points:
1. Bear breakout of the Bull Channel, waiting for confirmation
2. Strong bull response on 30EMA below the channel
3. Price is currently testing the channel
4. RSI is near 50 and is not supportive of either direction
5. Before trading DXY, wait to see if the price confirms or denies a breakout
Since we are in a bull trend, the probability of a confirmed breakout to the downside is less than the trend continuing to the upside. I think it is best to wait for a Daily close within the bull channel before entering a long or a bear candle closing near its low below the 30EMA before shorting. The bias ought to remain bull until we have confirmation of a break to the downside.
As always, trade at your own risk, you are responsible for your trades. I hope this analysis was insightful and useful.

DXY - DXY trading trend todayIn a year when the US economy beat all recession forecasts, budget ferocity has nearly doubled, and weak budget guidance has been found to be almost more lethal than interstate budget wars. faction in Washington.
The government decimated $2.02 billion in the fiscal year through September, after adjusting to remove the impact of President Joe Biden's student debt forgiveness program, which was struck down by the Supreme Court. This level is 1.02 USD rate higher than the previous year.
The extent of this increase could lead to financial statements that economists, politicians and agencies have previously warned against credit warnings. That also explains why long-term bond yields are hitting their highest level since 2007, with the government needing to issue more bonds to offset the blip. Yields on 10-year notes exceeded 5% on Monday.
Republican lawmakers have faulted President Biden for out-of-control spending, even though they are so firm on how to handle the budget that they have not yet agreed to elect a new speaker of the House of Representatives. . Meanwhile, spending needs continue to grow, with the White House calling for $106 billion in emergency funding for Israel, Ukraine and the US-Mexico border.
Yet for all the politics of spending, the main source of growing evil in 2023 is actually revenue. Much of the rest is due to the spoils of battle, another force that also causes fierce debate among the zodiac signs.

Bullish Dollar=Bearish EquitiesDXY oct 23, 2023
While many are expecting a more pronounced decline of DXY I am actually expecting more upside.
Here is why:
- Will start with a current price position from the monthly and will travel on to smaller timeframes as we move along.
- Monthly
- On the monthly DXY has broken out of a Bullish Flag structure it had formed from Dec 22- Aug 23
- Showing an energetic displacement upwards in the month of September and closing above Nov 22 lows
- Why is this important at least in the Monthly timeframe?
This is important since this month we have not seen any attempt to rebalance to the downside.
You would probably say that the month of October is not over yet, and you are right.
So we wait to see if Dollar has any intention of rebalancing tot he downside.
Until it closes the Month we will continue on lower timeframes to see what we find
- Weekly
- We are currently on the third week of October 23.
- So far we have come close to Sep 23 lows but have not breached it.
- In order to consider a Bearish trend we need to see Higher Lows and Lower Lows.
- We have witnessed a couple of Higher Lows without producing any Lower Lows.
- Last week we have a Higher Low to be exact.
Lets continue on lower timeframes
- Daily
- Here we start seeing a clearer picture of current movement and direction at least.
- On the Daily it shows the considerable displacement made by DXY on Oct 12, 23
- Also the follow up consolidation above this displacement area.
- What do we know about this consolidation?
- They have created lower lows via wicks yet all of the candles bodies have remained above 105.780
- This is important because it shows price inability or unwillingness to go lower.
- This indicates to me further upside for Dollar (DXY
What does that mean and why am I looking at DXY when I trade Futures (ES, NQ, GC, YM)?
The US dollar is inversely correlated to the tickers mentioned above.
Meaning that a Bullish Dollar = Bearish Equities.
Also Bullish Dollar = Bearish all its inversely correlated pairs like the EUR/USD
This is why I place so much importance on the direction of DXY (US dollar) even tho I do not like to use indicators it does not mean I won’t collect data from different sources in order to get confirmation.
And one of the most reliable sources of directional data that I have come to rely on in my trading career has been DXY.
DXY - Fed Chairman: 'Inflation is still too high'Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said that although inflation has cooled, the Fed remains committed to achieving its 2% target.
In a speech in New York on October 19, Chairman Jerome Powell acknowledged that tightening policy had brought inflation back under control, but stressed that the Fed must remain cautious in pursuing its goals. .
“Inflation remains too high. A few months of positive statistics are just the beginning of giving us confidence that inflation will return to target. But it remains to be seen how long these positive numbers will last, or how inflation will fare in the coming quarters. I don't know yet whether that will happen." He reiterated that Fed officials are "unanimously committed to bringing inflation down to 2%."
The speech raises questions about the Fed's future policy after a series of consecutive interest rate hikes. The Fed has raised interest rates 11 times since March 2022, and the current interest rate is 5.25%. This is the highest level in 22 years.
However, Chairman Powell believes that current interest rates are not too high. "Are the guidelines too strict? I don't think so," he said, but acknowledged that "rising interest rates are making things difficult for everyone."
The Fed also highlighted recent good progress on its goals. The inflation rate as of September was 3.7%, a significant drop from over 9% in the middle of last year. "The latest figures show progress on both our goals of maximum employment and price stability. The economy remains in very good shape."
But the comments came on the same day as reports showed the number of people applying for unemployment benefits last week was the lowest since the start of the year. This indicates that the labor market is tightening, which could put upward pressure on inflation.
In recent days, a number of Fed officials have said the Fed may temporarily pause rate hikes. Even the most pro-tightening members expect the Fed to wait for further economic impact from its last rate hike. The market now expects the Fed to halt rate hikes, at least for now.
The question is when will they start cutting interest rates? “If the environment remains risky and uncertain, we will be more cautious. The Fed will make decisions based on upcoming data, prospects and risks,” Powell said.
All eyes are on the Fed's keynote speech
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is scheduled to deliver a major policy speech on October 19th. The aim is to convince the market that the relevant central banks will continue to keep the inflation regime in check, but perhaps not, and that there will be some "easing" going forward.
The first monetary policy plan was submitted to the New York Economic Club as the U.S. economy faces many pressing issues.
Inflation has improved recently, but U.S. Treasury yields are rising, sending mixed signals about the direction of monetary policy. While most markets expect the Fed to keep interest rates on hold, they still expect Powell to confirm and clarify officials' views on the current situation and long-term trends.
Luke Tilley, chief economist at financial services firm Wilmington Trust, said Chief Executive Officer Powell continues to talk about inflation risks given the strength of the economy and unexpected consumer spending in the third quarter. I predict that.
Essentially, chief economist Tilley expects Powell's message to be divided into three parts. First, the Fed had to raise rates quickly, and they did. Next, the Fed needs to set a maximum interest rate, which is at the heart of the debate. And finally, we need to figure out how long interest rates need to stay at this high level to bring inflation down to our 2% target level.
